Our brains are physical object, and the connections it is composed of are also physical.
Polymath > A polymath is an individual whose knowledge spans a substantial number of subjects, known to draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems.
If that's who you are, there's no shame in identifying as so. Don't let hacker news comments gatekeep you.
For "inventory", it's just a custom state machine that can be scheduled in the past or future. And requests are things an area needs - which can be associated with an inventory item, or free text. This lets me pull up all requests when I'm at the store and see the kitchen needs apples, and the bathroom needs soap, etc.
Right now, I have a HUD for my front door (to remind me of things before i leave) a HUD for my phone/car (when I'm out) and then one for my kitchen, bathroom and hallway. I have the one in my kitchen magnetically on my fridge, so i can pull it off and take picture of food I'm adding. Will probably add one for my office next.
The difficult thing for me has been being the user more than being the builder and just focusing on the real MVP and then picking at it over time.
Working on cleaning it up and then maybe allowing others to give it a go - i feel like there could be some value in connecting people with spaces.
So... a miss for me on this helping with abstract thinking.
That said - keep iterating and challenging what is possible, and start talking to "customers".

I see this kind of mindset with developers who think only about code, and not about solving problems at scale with other people.
I find it highlights a key discrepancy: if the author had relied on a framework for this, the quality could be far greater at less effort.
I love how demonstratively wrong this is
In the public eye, Meta is particularly unethical. It's a large part of their current downfall. So I don't agree with you that it is a disingenuous point.
I wish he would stop pumping the newsletter. I like that he's promoting his own stuff, but he doesn't understand why i watch his channel - it's because they are informative videos, and give me something meaningful to watch when i eat dinner.
I'd love a westernamatry channel, or something similar in being a sister channel. Maybe shorter episodes. maybe just reading news articles and reflecting on them. Lots of formats that could work.
the stories he tells are unique and intriguing - for me that's the value.
But I'm not dismissing testing in unity. I think there are some simple approaches to testing automation that could be done. It would be nice if unit testing made more sense but in reflection i've often found it's the integration of components that breaks or changes, less than the behavior itself.
I think rebuilding SS13 in unity would overall be a great idea, but there is the problem of how complex SS13 is that would need to be worked. But I think with the right baby steps and SOLID design, it could be done.
But I do feel like any effort to rebuild would not be a huge success. SS13 is fun, but comparatively niche. Though as a mobile game there's a huge market.
> We think that no existing platform for point–to-point communication prioritizes the conversations that you actually care about and that really matter.

I wish the authors every ounce of luck they can find - there is so much wrong with this project and their approach, I hope they fail fast, learn some useful lessons, and try something else.
Have you never used MongoDB?
We aren't even thinking along those lines these days.
The syndrome was named after the Austrian pediatrician Hans Asperger, who, in 1944, described children in his care who struggled to form friendships, did not understand others' gestures or feelings, engaged in one-sided conversations about their favorite interests, and were clumsy.
highlighting this because: I have struggled with relationships of all shapes and sizes, and i used to think it was a result of my own individual failings - but have come to understand that is simply part of my nature. That doesn't stop the struggling, but it does make it more to-be-expected.
